Carl Moon asked Neil Gaiman:

Should one ever let go of a half-finished story?

Neil Gaiman If one wants to. Although there are very few stories I've let go of. There are a couple I've stopped writing from time to time, but ideas or moments from those stories still haunt me. I wrote the first page of "How the Marquis Got His Coat Back" in about 2005, and then picked it up at the end of 2012 and wrote the next page, and the next, until it was done.

Ezekiel asked Neil Gaiman:

I took your Masterclass and thought it was extremely informative. I was surprised by how eye-opening the comic book section was. You managed to demystify the skill of writing a comic. Any chance of you coming back to Masterclass and doing a class solely on comics?

Laci

Laci asked Neil Gaiman:

I'm currently reading View from the Cheap Seats and I've never actively created a to-read list while reading another book. View from the Cheap Seats would also have a soundtrack and I've added some of those musicians to my music playlist. How in the world do you make long-ago speeches and introductions so compelling?

Samantha Sweet

Samantha Sweet asked Neil Gaiman:

I love your books. You have such a way with words. Do you think you'll come out with a second season for Good Omens? It's one of the best shows I've seen in a long time, and I was disheartened to find out that there were no immediate plans for a second season. The characters, plots, and story telling were amazing. I have watched it several times. I hope you do come out with a second season.
